⚙️ Why is Android Auto not native about the 2015 Citroën DS4?

The Citroën DS4 in its 2015 version is equipped, depending on the finishes, with one of the following systems: SMEG or SMEG+. Between 2014 and 2016, none of these versions offered Android Auto in native. The software sometimes accepted Mirrorlink and in some cases Apple Carplay, but Android Auto was completely absent.

The main reason is that Android Auto was not yet generalized on vehicles When the 2015 DS4 is released. It was not until the NAC configurations (after 2016) to start seeing native Android Auto compatibility at PSA.

To remember: No DS4 2015 model has an original Android Auto. It is necessary to add it via a compatible module or car radio.

📉 State of SMEG+ systems: what they allow (or not)

The system SMEG+ Embedded to the DS4 2015 poses certain major constraints. This system is based on closed software architecture, with:
